Textul de pe ultima copertă
A single phone call can change your life.
"There's been an accident.
You have cancer.
The company's downsizing.
Your spouse wants out.
"
All of a sudden everything spins out of control.
At some point, we've all felt painful loss, bitter disappointment, embarrassing failure, unthinkable betrayal, and the seeming randomness of suffering. Some of us have faced death. Sometimes it all happens at once. And we have quietly wondered (or maybe even screamed), "Why is this happening to me? Where is God in all of this?"
The answer may surprise you.
With sincere sympathy and ready encouragement, Bruce W. Martin takes you through a grieving process that will help you reconcile your deep suffering with your beliefs about God. A unique and compassionate take on the age-old question of suffering, this book is for anyone who has experienced life-shattering pain.

The directness and honesty of this book are refreshing."--Joseph Bentz, author of "Pieces of Heaven: Recognizing the Presence of God
"
"A bright new voice sharing a solid, biblical response to suffering that could change your life. Brimming with hope and grace, this book is pure gold."--Austin Boyd, award-winning novelist and coauthor of "H2O
